Why get_list_readrequest needs a policy

This tool polls the status of a previously-created read request and retrieves paginated data. It is read-only—it queries status and downloads data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. The blast radius of misuse is minimal; an attacker could only exfiltrate data they already have access to through a legitimate read request.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Poll status of a large volume list read' and 'download each page' - purely retrieval operations with no side effects, no data modification, no external execution, and no destructive or financial impact.

How to control get_list_readrequest

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Anaplan MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_list_readrequest:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_list_readrequest": {}
  }
}

get_list_readrequest is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Anaplan MCP — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
